    They don’t appear to be that esteemed.... Outside of their own circle where they no doubt tell each other how amazing they are.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    We’ve been discussing having Y10 in for 2 hours 3 days a week on a 2 week cycle (we have 2 bands) but only about 80 kids out of 240 have signed up to come in. So they’ll have 6 hours of school every 2 weeks. We have to continue to provide online learning for all of them so any kids that come in...

    Yes that’s right - but when they were over 100 deaths a day they didn’t decide to open up their schools did they??

    If the UK was recording the figures Spain was then there would be far less concern and criticism of the government’s approach. As people have already said on here - we’re opening up with higher figures than when we locked down. And even if someone wanted to argue that direction of trajectory it...

    They have 0 deaths and still think the risk is too great. There’s little point in quoting success for another country when our country pales into comparison and you then don’t get the scrutiny...

    You need to lay off the click-bait. This is straight out of the Trump appreciation Facebook page. Is it because the Chinese are raging lefties?

    Again - you using that word safe. Where is the evidence to justify that?? Just one piece would be a start.

    With people like Trump in charge they feel empowered. The Brexit vote did something similar here in the UK albeit not on the same scale - (it also took away from people that wanted to leave the EU but were not of this nature)

    I don’t have much choice as we have to shield my daughter as she has an anti-body irregularity that affects her immune system. She’s in Y7 and my son is in Y4 so they weren’t part of the initial phase anyway. That aside there is no way I would have sent them into school at this juncture. I worry...

    George Floyd

    The fact is he shouldn’t have to say it - he needs to because too many people are fucking morons. This is when leadership has to model this and take the lead.

    But we do not have a plan. All we have is a series of knee jerk reactions from the government as they feel pressure from ‘interested parties’ The last 2 weeks have been a disorganised shambles - even you are acknowledging it with the schools, the track and trace and then Cummings.
